after
spending almost 4 years of my life in a suspended womb of unrealistic
expectations,
I realized
the world outside was very different from what I dreamt.
The world
was collapsing, some directors jumped on the boat of 1900 way of film-making,
some were too late… the boat sailed, my generation was left on the banks.
I have to
say I could clearly see a big big storm on the horizon, and I wondered if that
boat was actually going somewhere... in the end, I didn’t care too much.
‘cause on
the banks often come epiphanies.
And I got
mine.
What was I
loving the most about the idea of filmmaking?
The red
carpet?
Sitting on
a 13 meters crane?
I just
thought “fuck it”. Maybe I’ll get it, maybe I won’t, but what I really want my
life to be is
...the one of
a storyteller.
And I was
lucky enough to witness the birth of digital filmmaking.
The birth
of internet.
The world
was collapsing, the crowds were moving.
My point
was “I want to tell people my stories”,
So I’m
going to tell them, despite the circumstances.
But I wasn’t
alone during the process.
I happened
to meet Riccardo (Sardonè) on my way, and we really felt the same urge.
So we
decided to join forces.
He came up
with a brilliant idea which I developed, he liked it, now we’re working on it
together.
This idea
gave birth to STUCK, a web series project.
Then we
realized we needed a Manifesto…
